ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI-FOX2Now.com) - Dan Vacca says a census worker approached him outside his South St. Louis condo on Tuesday. He thought it was odd that the worker had his dog with him.
While he was answering questions Vacca says a dog jumped up and bit him in the stomach.
Animal control officer says it will monitor the dog for rabies. The case will be reviewed to see if the dog can remain with it's owner.
The census taker was unavailable for comment.

Of course had the guy, you know, filled out the stupid ten question census like two months ago, he wouldnt have been contacted by the worker in the first place. I left my phone number off the census and Im surprised I havent been visited. My neighbors moved out like three months ago, and the house is empty but I have seen census workers going over there. It seems like they should contact the landlords first and foremost to see if anyone lives there because they are wasting their time.

I filled out and returned the form but a census taker visited my home anyway.
Quality checks are used to assure our procedures are working and that our staff is doing the job they were assigned to do. These checks require that some households be visited more than once.

That's a shame.
I say all elected officials representing shady or bad neighborhoods be required to do census for the area.

I feel bad for all involved. The hatred towards census or census workers is sad. They are just Americans trying to earn some money in a bad economy.
Sigh. I meant that because it is usually the fault of shady local and state officials who allow certain areas to become "bad". Thus why should we risk our lives working there, let them do it. Incentive to clean it up and all that nonsense I suppose.

I am so sick of this excuse. You are responsible for what you choose to do as work. The Nazi death camp guards were just doing a job too so they could feed thier families....Sigh! While of course census workers are no where near that level they do work for the machine of oppression so you get the point. Just doing a job is no excuse to invade peoples privacy and trespass on thier property without thier permission.
Seriously? Have you ever read any of my posts? If so how you get I love the administration or any administration is beyond me. I pretty much cant stand any of the thieves and crooks in Washington. I am not shy about stating it either.

Oh yes, I feel SO SORRY for them, especially for taking a job with the Government. Please. Your liberal bleeding heart is so pathetic when it comes to shielding the administration you love so dearly.
